Oxygen plays a crucial role in brewing, but balance is key. It's a delicate dance between flavour & freshness. During fermentation, yeast needs it to reproduce & create desired flavours. Once fermentation is complete, exposure to oxygen can lead to off flavours & staleness.1/2

Can beer be aged? Yes, but not all beer styles are suitable for aging. Some beer styles that can benefit from aging are high ABV beers like barley wines, imperial stouts, strong ales. When aging beer, it is important to store it in a cool, dark place & avoid light, heat & oxygen.

Mashing is where grains & hot water combine, creating a porridge-like mixture. Grains, primarily barley, lend their starchy goodness to the mix, while hot water activates enzymes that convert those starches into fermentable sugars. It's a near-magical transformation process!

Canadians expect a "do no harm" approach from their government. A new 6.3% beer tax hike without a vote in Parliament is way off-side #HereForBeer #FreezeBeerTaxesNow #KeepBeerAffordable

Have you tried Nitro Beer? It is a style of beer carbonated with nitrogen gas instead of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas used in most beers. It results in smaller bubbles, giving the beer a smooth, creamy texture with a thick, frothy head. #Beer101 #NitroBeer #Beer

It’s no #AprilFools joke. Starting today, the automatic escalator tax on #beer will happen in perpetuity every year, with no votes or discussion in #cdnparl . If you disagree with this, write your MP, sign & share our petition to #axethebeertax at #cdnbeer
